MEMORANDUM To: R. L. Adamson: Referring to the question as to facilities served by electrical current through Circuit #1 and Circuit 02$ as reported by Maintenance of Way forces at Las Vegas: In an effort to determine definitely which of the water facility motors are Included in electric meter read­ings referred to above, following is information developed in conversation with Mr. Cotmire of the Electrical Depart­ment, Las Vegas: Mr. Cotmire advises that in recording the electric meter readings monthly he records them as readings of meters Panel #1, Panel #2 and Panel #3, etc., across the entire board. He states, that Panel #1 Is the lead-in panel, Panel #2 records the current used on electric circuit serving Charleston Boulevard reservoir and Bonanza Village pump­house only, Panel #3 serves Reservoir #1, wells and all other motors in the water field. In order to & efinltely tie-in the panel number with the circuit number used in the Maintenance of Way reports, and Incidentally to definitely establish which facilities are served by each of the so-called Circuits #1 and #2, I obtained from Mr. Cotmire the folllwlng meter readings taken in September, October, November and December: L o s A n g e l e s - M arch 9 , 1 9 5 1 1 - 7 3 3 4 September October November December :Meter KWH :Meter KWH :Meter KWH :Meter KWH : Read- :Read- :Read- :Read- : lng Used: ing Used :.in« Used :.lng Used. • Panel 02i 4681 e # 450: 5131 428 :5559 423 :5982 Panel #3: 9044 a 1371: 0415 778 :1193 524 a :1717 Using the readings indicated in the above tabulation and the amount of current consumed as a guide and referring to tabulation in this file, data for which was obtained from Main­tenance of Way forces, it seems to be definitely established
